Praise for The TV Time Travellers

A book written with a pleasing directness and a sureness which carry it along, buoyed up by a strong imagination which persuades and then takes you where you least expect to go. A definite winner

Phil Hewitt, Chichester Observer

Johnson cleverly exploits contemporary themes of reality TV and "celebrity" obsession, whilst sensitively exposing, en route, the many emotions facing young children today

Laura Ciftci, The School Librarian

The emotional landscape is immediately familiar, the subject is popular and contemporary, and the writing is energetic, vivid and accessible

Jill Murphy, The Bookbag

Full of surprises so you don't really know where it is heading, but can't wait to find out

Primary Times

Another great, humorous book from critically acclaimed Pete Johnson . . . an exciting story perfect for boys and girls aged eleven and over
